Langtree Consulting will help businesses manage every aspect of spending categories with Source to Pay (S2P), so that they can move quicker, run leaner, and keep ahead of consumer demands and evolving economic factors.

S2P spans SAP S/4HANA Cloud, SAP Ariba and Fieldglass along with Ariba Network to provide enterprises with capabilities and tools that optimize strategic, tactical and operational procurement as well as supplier management and trading partner collaboration.

• Supplier management and trading partner collaboration – Ariba Network helps organizations move beyond traditional, linear supply chain models and into a lean, dynamic, collaborative supply network across trading partners. Supplier management capabilities with SAP S/4HANA Cloud and SAP Ariba solutions help unify supplier records with consistent qualification, segmentation and supplier risk management.
• Source and contract – Sourcing capabilities with SAP S/4HANA Cloud and SAP Ariba solutions help manage sourcing, contracting and spend analysis processes for all types of spend integrated into execution and procurement processes.

Customers can now leverage the following end-to-end S2P sub-processes, starting with the 2020 SAP S/4HANA release:

Employee self-service procurement with guided buying capability for SAP Ariba and SAP S/4HANA:

• This sub process creates a simple, smart and elegant purchasing experience that increases user engagement across all spend areas. Guided buying serves as a central place where all buyers can shop across all goods and services. It enables procurement and individual line-of-business owners to specify procurement policies and inform and guide users whenever there appear to be policy conflicts. These capabilities enable purchasers to collaborate directly with suppliers and other procurement users in the context of the procurement need, making procurement more efficient.
• SAP S/4HANA central procurement solution offers a centralized requisitioning process with guided buying that lets organizations scale purchasing processes across the whole unit through a centralized procurement system. It connects guided buying in the SAP Ariba Buying solution to the customer’s ERP or SAP S/4HANA Cloud systems and exchanges business documents to support end-to-end business processes across finance and logistics that run in the connected systems. The integration allows transfer and updates of the requisition as well as necessary master data between the two applications.
